My youngest ask me to pick up some random books for him at the library the other day. I guess he couldn't keep logging the Harry Potter books on his reading log for English anymore. Or that other set of books that Jim Carey was in a movie about. Can't remember the name of them now.

So I went to the library and perused the Stephen King shelf. I think 14 is a good age to get the shit scared out of you while reading a book. But our shelves were pretty bare except for The Green Mile and that other one where some guy craps an alien out of his butt. We've got enough poop issues around here what with our camera phones and all.

I ended up in the humor section and saw a book by that Larry the Cable Guy ... guy. The kid at the frame shop is always howling about him and I've caught a glimpse of him on t.v. for a couple of minutes. He seems to have a pretty juvenile sense of humor so I grabbed that book and some other series from the juvenile fiction area.

Thing 2 started reading last night and quickly came into my room and said "Nice book mom! The first chapter talks about how Larry the Cable Guy was sodomized by Dick Van Patten. Who's Dick Van Patten?"

Apparently, Larry the Cable Guy's sense of humor is even more juvenile than I thought.

I can't get the damn book away from my kid. He loves it. And seeing as how his sense of humor is only a little more grown up than Larry the Cable Guy, I guess I'll just let the kid read it and deal with the repercussions of the comments he'll toss out in public and then come here and write about them so we can all have a good laugh.

You're welcome.

Stay away from Dick Van Patten. I'd keep my distance from those over Van Pattens too. You just never know.

Big fun weekend ahead for me. Girls weekend away at my sister's cabin. Where my sister will spend each and every moment trying to lure me to the dark side and fill me with food. I am onto her game and I am doing so damn fine with the weight watchers this week that I don't think she has a chance. Getting me to go off the weight watchers wagon has apparently become a competitive sport.

Food aside, I'm looking forward to a lot of shopping and laughing and cheating at board games. The weather is fantastic so it'll be alot of fun to sit outside on the deck, with a fire going in the nearby fireplace, and look out at the water.

I wish you could all be there. Well, most of you. None of you Van Pattens. Not that there's anything wrong with sodomizing Larry the Cable Guy.
